Ksp=1.6×109.............

Explanation:

5C2O24+2MnO4+16H+2Mn2++10CO2(g)+8H2O.

So, we works out moles of permanganate:

=0.001molL1×4×103L=4×106mol

And thus, by the stoichiometry, there were 52×4×106mol calcium oxalate, which were dissolved in 250mL water under conditions of saturation, i.e. a concentration of.......

52×4×106mol0.250L=4.0×105molL1.

But, by specification, this represented a saturated solution.

And so Ksp=[Ca2+][C2O24]

=(4.0×105molL1)2=1.6×109
